Appearance:
Bailey has a natural carefree beauty about her; it seems like the girl wakes up in the morning and looks like a million bucks. She stands at an average height of 5’6 and is a respectable size 8. Her medium olive complexion contrasts with her blue eyes. Sandy blonde mid length hair frames a small round face dimpled face. Her cheeks are chubby and rosie and her nose somewhat broad and freckled. Bailey has small hands and feet something that bothers her a great deal, it’s a petty thing really but it still bothers her. Her arms and legs are thin and toned to the extent of when you look at her carefully you could tell she is a trained dancer. This is also portrayed by the way she carries herself in an air of elegance and gracefulness.
Her style is a cross between old school Hollywood glam and bohemian, Bailey prefers to mix and match here and there and tends to over – accessorize it is ‘her thing’. She is never one to be caught in designer wear she thinks it to predictable and she feels as if she is not being true to herself when she wears such brands.
Bailey likes to keep her makeup to a minimal only wearing mascara and eyeliner on a regular basis, and doing the ‘full thing’ for special occasions or when she just isn’t feeling so glam. The main thing that shines with Bailey Mitchell is her smile, it seems to radiate happiness and light up rooms and it’s an easy thing to do, which is a plus.
Personality:
Laid-back and easygoing, Bailey has always been quick to make friends. She has a hard time opening up though, and when it comes to spilling her secrets, she can be a tiny bit cold and standoffish. You could say that she has many layers to go through before she trusts you completely. Once you lose her trust, it is VERY hard to get it back. If she's angry or displeased with you, she can be extremely cold-- and you don't want that, because it's pure hell, just ask her stepmother. She is quite forgiving though, but don't expect things to be the way they used to be her trust is a very hard thing to get back when it’s been lost. She's very witty and flirtatious, and a pretty big tease-- she gets joy out of that. She is loyal to her friends or boyfriend, but she has cheated on her boyfriends in the past. Bailey regrets things easily and regrets almost any mistake she makes. The girl has a rather large phobia of screwing up.
She is a chatterbox. Her heart is made of gold; when she loves you, she will do anything for you. Bailey used to be pretty weak-minded and gullible, back when her parents divorced when she was 13, but she has toughened up. Now Bailey won't take shit from anyone. Running her over simply won't happen. She has learned that she comes first and foremost. Bailey loves children, so you could say that she's the maternal sort. When a friend is sick, she's there to take care of them, and when you're suffering from heartbreak, she will be there with you with a box of tissues, a large supply of chocolate and chick flicks.
But no one is perfect Bailey has many faults as well. Bailey has a quick temper-- and can very easily succumb to peer pressure. She can be a bit hesitant because, as stated before, she hates screwing up and making mistakes. When she does make a mistake Bailey pretty much falls apart at the seams and will do something stupid like get drunk and make a complete fool of herself. She forgives but does not forget, and will use these grudges against you if you should happen to piss her off. She gets embarrassed very easily-- it's not hard to make her cheeks blush-- which could be counted as a fault or not.

Secrets:
Bailey was the first to find out her father was having an affair with Miss Jodie, her dance teacher. As much as it broke her heart to find out about it she never told her mother, maybe it was cowardliness or the fact she didn’t want to break her heart, but Bailey never told.
History:
Born Bailey Eloise Parker little Bailey came into the world 3 weeks and 1 day premature on the 29th of January in 1990. She was born and bred in Noosa heads, Queensland, Australia. It was a coastal beach town with a mixture of middle class lifestyles and that of luxury living. Bailey’s family did the latter of the two, her father George Parker was the town’s only investment banker and with his large cliental base through out the town the Parker family became one of the wealthiest in Noosa heads. Her childhood was one of happiness and memories as she shared the whole thing with her older brother Adrian, though the two of them where spoiled rotten by their parents the two children remained grounded throughout their youth.
Bailey a scrawny awkward looking child was five when her mother Diana first enrolled her in Noosa community centers dance program, where she met 16 year old Jodie a local high school student with a passion for dance. Jodie took Bailey under her wing and nurtured the girls talent and Bailey being the influential child she was looked up to Jodie like the older sister she never had.
Bailey was 12 when it happened a simple mistake on her mothers behalf, she had put Bailey on an earlier bus to dancing as her car was in for repairs. The studio car park was empty when Bailey was dropped off on the main road opposite the studio except for one car, the black SUV parked right in the back corner her fathers car. Bailey still remembers the next few minutes so vividly she can remember it point to point. She had been so excited to see his car there and being the naïve 12 year old she was thought he was here to watch her dance – you see he never came to watch her dance. What she saw next would scar Bailey’s world forever. Her father the man who raised her locked in a passionate kiss with a scantily clad Jodie her idol, mentor and best friend.
Bailey quit dancing after that day though her mother pushed her and pushed her to tell her why she had given up Bailey never told her and simple said “I just don’t want to dance anymore” and the once young vibrant Bailey Parker became silent and reclusive to everyone around her especially her father who couldn’t understand why his daughter had become so cold towards him.
At age 13 her parents finally divorced after months of sneaking around and secret rendezvous Bailey’s father was finally caught out, by Jenny. Bailey’s then 9 year old sister. It had been Bailey’s mothers birthday party and Miss Jodie still a family friend was there – much to Bailey’s disgust and Jodie and George Parker had conveniently disappeared together. On her mothers orders to go find her Dad little Jenny went upstairs to her parents room to find Jodie and George doing what Jenny came back and told her mother “Something funny with no clothes and police stuff”.
Needless to say Diana filed for divorce the next day.
In small town like Noosa these things spread fast and soon the whole town new about the affair between the young dance teacher and Bailey’s father. Her mother who was severely disgusted and repulsed by her ex-husbands actions packed up her and her children’s lives and moved to Sydney NSW.
The family lasted there about 6 months before Diana Parker met Caleb Mitchell the very successful investment banker and Bailey’s dad’s boss to boot. The couple married 2 years into their relationship and have been together for now 3 years and Caleb has recently asked Diana and the kids to move to Valkyrie, California where he is setting up his new industry. Bailey had never heard of Valkyrie EVER – but like every teen girl she had heard of California and with out much persuading the 16 year old teen was keen to go and leave her past behind.
Valkyrie proved to be the culture shock she thought it would be. During her first month in Valkyrie, Bailey was involved in the car accident which killed Bianca Rivera, Scarlett Monroe and leaving Chase Stillings in acoma. Her mother and step father Caleb where strict and overly protective of her after that stunting her growth in the Valkyrie social scene even more. Bailey slowly gained momentum in the social scene, making friends quickly but still was annoyed with the constant reminder of the accident, it bugged her that she was known as 'the other girl' in the accident.
Adrian Mitchell, her brother was in his senior year at Valkyrie Academy and fitted in well the the social party scene and on the weekend that their mother and step father went away the two teens held a party. Alot when down at the Mitchell's party and Bailey couldn't remember alot of it. Hazy images of the night before involving Luke Summitt and too much alcohol confirmed what she had done. She had slept with Luke Summitt - Oops.

Well I like her!
Roleplaying Sample:
Snicker-snack. Snicker-snack. Just like in the silly poem, Lizzy. That poem written on opium by Carroll... that one guy who was SO stoned and out of it that he was your bloody hero. The pedophile on opium was your hero, and I wasn't, when I could have sworn that the two of us would be heterosexual life partners (ha, an inside joke between us, remember? In December, at my aunt's wedding?) until you either died because you freaking O.D.-ed or I by the hand of another human being because I couldn't keep my mouth shut. Funny, how that works. Did you even have a hero, Lizzy? Was there any hero in your sky? You better be damn happy, girl, or... ha, I'll kill you, if you're not.
Rain couldn't help but laugh slightly as she stood amongst the rows and rows of graves. She wasn't fond of churches at all (religion was too touchy for her, so she wallowed in borderline Agnosticism and went on her merry little way in life), but, where else do they bury the dead but in a church's churchyard? Honestly, it was only logic. Unfair logic, yes, but, logic, nevertheless.
She glanced down slowly with an ethereal smile battered on her pink lips to her dress, and tilted her head. It was a white tube-dress, worn with black flip-flops that she had kicked off carelessly before the entrance to the graveyard. Shoes shouldn't be worn, even on gravel, when it came to the dead, she had always poetically reasoned. But, yes... she couldn't bring herself to clothe herself in something despondent and ebon. She hated it, but death was to be celebrated, and bearing a color of depression would only anchor down the stars in her eyes she tried so hard to keep walking up on. With a silent earphone fitted comfortably within the pocket of her ear, she merely stood in the very center of the walkway, daring not to inch onwards into the yard. She knew where Lizzy’s grave was, but there was no way she was going to move. Not now, after already going so far without ever visiting once.
You better be damn happy, girl.
